The Beckhams’ family drama just got a Hollywood glow-up, complete with high-profile dinners, royal tension, and more than a dash of betrayal.
Former English football player, David Beckham, and wife, Victoria Beckham, were reportedly “blindsided” by the news that their eldest son, Brooklyn and daughter-in-law, Nicola Peltz, had spent an evening at the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Montecito mansion.
According to The Sun, the dinner was a 22-person affair hosted by Paramount, with the Peltz-Beckhams rubbing elbows with the Sussexes.
Meghan’s PR team didn’t deny the meeting but clarified that the invitation came “through mutual acquaintances.”
“It’s weird for them,” said one source.
“They used to socialise with Meghan and Harry, and now their boy is doing it.”
The Beckhams and Sussexes, once close, have had a famously fraught relationship.
Back in 2017, Meghan allegedly accused Victoria of leaking beauty tips to the tabloids after she recommended a few London-based experts.
The fallout? Meghan reportedly had Prince Harry call up David to confront him about it.
David, ever diplomatic, kept his cool, but insiders say that phone call marked the beginning of the end.
What followed was a steady drift: public silence, unreturned favours, and one frosty royal wedding invite. The Beckhams made the cut for the ceremony, but not the reception. George and Amal Clooney were invited instead, despite never having met the bride and groom.
More recently, insiders say David has shifted his loyalty away from Prince Harry and toward Prince William, who now counts the former footballer as something of a “big brother” figure in navigating fame.
And in what royal watchers are calling a subtle show of support, Princess Kate recently stepped out in a £1300 ($A2700) Victoria Beckham suit, which she purchased herself.
“A deliberate marker,” according to friends.
Now, the younger generation is unexpectedly tangled in the drama. Brooklyn and Nicola’s friendly night with the Sussexes reportedly left David and Victoria wary, not just of Meghan’s influence, but of what might come next.
One lingering fear? That Brooklyn might “do a Harry” and pen a tell-all memoir.
“He’s lived a very privileged life,” said a source.
“It would have juicy chapters, but that’s not his style. He still loves his parents. He wouldn’t go nuclear.”
Meghan and Nicola reportedly got along well, bonding over shared frustrations with the media.
Meghan, once branded difficult by insiders, was described as “warm and kind” during the dinner. One source called her “a consummate social butterfly,” clearly on form and “working the room”, with Paramount execs, no less.
Speculation is swirling that Meghan, whose Netflix deal has lost momentum, is looking to lock in her next production partner.
Victoria Beckham may not be a survivor in the formal sense, but she knows what it’s like to be on the wrong end of a Meghan miscommunication. And whatever bridges remain between the two camps? They seem far too scorched to cross.
As for now, there has been no official comment from either family.
